Awhile back someone was raving about the pretzel bread (I think) at on e of the Epcot restaurants. Can anyone tell me which restaurant that would be?

Thanks.
 
That would be at Le Cellier in Canada. GREAT restaurant!!!
 
Anyone happen to have the pretzel bread recipe? I never seem to make it to either of those 2 restaurants, even though I have been wanting to try the pretzel bread for a while. :blush:

I would appreciate you sharing it if it's available. :hyper:

Thanks,

The counter service restaurant in Germany has a smoked ham sandwhich on pretzel bread that is great.
 
I have this one, which is a "copy cat" recipe for it.

CHEDDAR CHEESE PRETZEL BREAD
Great Pretender for Le Cellier, Canada Pavilion, EPCOT

Makes 1 loaf (20 servings)

"This giant twist is for those who are fans of soft pretzels. Rather than shaping the dough into individual portions, it is rolled in a thick rope & formed into one oversized knot. Slice & serve with sausages & a good cold beer."

½ c chopped onion
1 Tbl butter or margarine
4-5 c all-purpose flour
1 pkg active dry yeast
1 egg
2 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese (8 ounces)
1¼ c warm water (120°-130°)
1 Tbl sugar
1½ tsp dried Italian seasoning, crushed
½ tsp salt
1 slightly beaten egg white
1 Tbl water
1 tsp coarse salt (optional)

In a small skillet cook onion in hot butter or margarine till tender but not brown, about 7 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.

In a large mixing bowl stir together 1½ cups of the flour & the yeast. Add cooked onion, egg, cheese, 1¼ cups warm water, sugar, Italian seasoning & salt. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6-8 minutes total). Shape into a ball. Place in a lightly greased bowl; turn once. Cover & let rise in a warm place till double (1-1¼ hours). Punch dough down. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface & let rest for 10 minutes.

Lightly grease a baking sheet. Roll dough into a 48-inch-long rope. On the baking sheet form the rope into a large pretzel shape by crossing one end over the other to form a circle, overlapping about 12 inches from each end. Take one end in each hand & twist once at the point where the dough overlaps. Lift each end across to the edge of the circle opposite. Moisten the ends & tuck underneath; press to seal. Cover & let rise in a warm place till nearly double (about 45 minutes). Stir together egg white & 1 tablespoon water; brush onto bread. If desired, sprinkle lightly with coarse salt.

Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for 40-45 minutes, or till bread is golden brown & sounds hollow when tapped. If necessary, cover loosely with foil the last 20 minutes of baking to prevent overbrowning. Remove from pan; cool completely on a wire rack.
 
Thanks piratesmate :wave: I can't wait to try making it, it sounds so yummy. :hyper:

We were served pretzel bread for lunch at Cinderella's Royal Table two weeks ago.
